After the rebellion was successful, I realized that this place was the Red Mansion

Chapter 198 A Mortal's Heart Stirred, Miaoyu Peeks into the Grass Pavilion
Let's talk about Sister Feng again.

He was cursing the emperor in his heart, wondering why he insisted on meeting at the back of the house instead of going to the empty thatched hut. He wondered what evil intentions the emperor was up to!
Just as she was waiting in annoyance, she suddenly saw a tall figure appear around the corner. He was wearing a bright yellow round-necked robe with a dragon design, and his eyes were like lightning as he stared straight at her.

In an instant, her face flushed red and her heart pounded like a drum, for she knew that the strong and tall dog emperor in front of her was about to take her right here!
When he slowly approached, she couldn't utter a word. Her face burned, and her legs went weak. In front of such a tall man, even if he wasn't the emperor, she, as a young lady from a noble family, was helpless. The man could hold her down with just one arm, completely unlike the young master Lian, who came from a noble family!
The man in front of her was strong and powerful with cold eyes. He stared at her intently, scrutinizing her face, chest, waist, buttocks, and legs.

Only then did I hear him slowly ask, "So it's you, sister-in-law. Greetings, sister-in-law."

Fengjie was taken aback and looked at the emperor in surprise. She wondered why he had uttered the word "sister-in-law". He was about the same age as her and they were not related. Even if he married the girls in the mansion, he didn't need to call her "sister-in-law".

Seeing her like this, Chu Yan laughed and said, "Sister-in-law, don't you even remember me? I came out to admire the flowers after drinking at the banquet today, and I didn't expect to run into you here!"

Suddenly realizing what was happening, Fengjie blushed and said to him with a mixture of anger and resentment, "Why is Your Majesty making fun of me again? Of all the people to impersonate, why did you have to impersonate someone who died from lust? Your Majesty, as the supreme ruler, is lowering yourself in this way!"

The words Jia Rui just spoke were what he said when he met Feng Jie. Even she didn't quite remember them. It must have been Ping'er, that little hussy, who told him exactly what she said!

Chu Yan slowly raised his hand and pinched Feng Jie's smooth chin.

Before she knew it, Feng Jie was touched by his hand. She was furious, but when she saw the emperor in front of her, who was a head taller than her and had an intimidating aura, she was afraid that if she didn't comply, the dog emperor would force her to the ground!
Therefore, Fengjie suppressed her anger and asked with a forced smile, "What is Your Majesty doing?"

Chu Yan said, "Don't you know what I'm going to do, sister-in-law?"

Sister Feng blushed even more, gritted her teeth, and pointed to the thatched hut, saying, "I'll do whatever you say, but it's broad daylight outside, you should at least go inside."

She was extremely flustered.

Chu Yan feigned surprise: "What are you going inside for? I just bumped into you, sister-in-law. Do you really want to sleep with me?"

Feng Jie's phoenix eyes were filled with shame, anger and resentment. She knew that he was toying with her, like a cat playing with a mouse. He would only stop when she took the initiative to submit and do something shameful!

He then said with a forced smile, "At a time like this, why is Your Majesty still making fun of me? It's pointless to embarrass me to the point of being shameful."

Chu Yan looked at her for a while before smiling at her.

Just as Sister Feng breathed a sigh of relief, she heard the dog emperor say, "So it turns out that Sister Feng was prepared to be truly favored by the emperor, which is quite unexpected."

Feng Jie blushed even more, half laughing and half complaining, "His Majesty has issued an edict to make those shameful bellybands and ordered people to do 'that' alone at night. Anyone who isn't a fool can guess that His Majesty has feelings for someone."

She spoke frankly so she could plead with him later.

Sister Feng was prepared to be questioned further by the dog emperor, and she had already thought about how to answer. But to her surprise, the dog emperor just looked her up and down, smiled and didn't say anything. He walked forward and said, "Come with me."

Sister Feng's heart skipped a beat. She looked into the distance, but she had no idea where the path led. She vaguely remembered that there was a pond in the northeast corner of the garden.

The emperor walked at a leisurely pace, unlike Jia Rui, who was so eager to see people that he seemed to want to stick his eyes on them. He appeared to be there for a stroll rather than for an affair!

Sister Feng had no choice but to smile and follow, though she was secretly having second thoughts.

The two followed the overgrown path and soon arrived at a flower garden. There was a thatched pavilion by the pond. Because the place was remote and few people came, the original flower garden had long since become a scenic spot, but the thatched pavilion still had a place to sit.

"Your Majesty, please wait a moment, let me wipe it clean!"

Sister Feng hurried forward and took out a handkerchief to wipe the place where they were sitting under the thatched pavilion.

Chu Yan sat down, glanced at her, and laughed: "Sister Feng is indeed a sensible person. Very well, I will not make things difficult for you."

Fengjie was overjoyed and quickly said with a smile, "Thank you for your mercy, Your Majesty." She then apologized, "I am young and inexperienced, and I am not good with words. I have offended Your Majesty in many ways. I hope Your Majesty will not take offense!"

She thought she had escaped a terrible ordeal.

Although the emperor didn't lust after her, which infuriated her, it was good that she could avoid his humiliation and get through this quickly.

Chu Yan nodded and said, "You are indeed short-sighted. You have some clever tricks, but you only care about the money in your pocket. It is obvious that you are illiterate and have not read books. If you had done less of these petty thefts and read books, you would not have ended up with the fate of 'being too cunning and scheming and ruining your own life'."

Sister Feng's face turned red and purple, and she wanted to get angry but couldn't!
He thought to himself, "How could such a bastard insult someone to their face? Is he trying to humiliate them to death?"

He was furious inside, but he still smiled and said, "Your Majesty's accusation of petty theft is a complete injustice! I have always stayed in the mansion, taking care of my parents-in-law and the old lady, and raising my sister-in-law and daughter. I have never done anything so shameful... If lending money at interest is considered petty theft, then this is another miscarriage of justice!"

Chu Yan said, "Do you remember someone named Zhang Jinge?"

Sister Feng was puzzled at first, but after thinking about it for a while, she remembered who this person was. It turned out that she was involved in a matter.

The Zhang family had a daughter nicknamed Jin Ge. She was first betrothed to the family of the garrison commander of Chang'an, but later the brother-in-law of the prefect of Chang'an took a liking to her and wanted to get the garrison commander's family to break off the engagement with the Zhang family.

Since she was in front of the emperor, even though she had a thousand things to say in her heart, she only dared to lower her head and smile obsequiously, saying, "I only remembered it when Your Majesty mentioned it."

He paused for a moment, then continued, "That matter was my fault, but I thought, since Zhang's daughter, Jin Ge, has not married into that garrison commander's family, the Zhang family returned the betrothal gifts, and the two families lived in harmony. If the garrison commander's family insists on marrying her, Jin Ge will definitely suffer after marrying into that family. It would be better to let them be together."

"It's all made up."

Chu Yan said lightly.

Sister Feng then dared not speak.

Chu Yan said, "You only heard one side of the story, how could you know the details? If the garrison commander's son and Jin Ge are in love, and it's Jin Ge's father trying to curry favor with the powerful? The two families had a marriage agreement, but the Zhang family took the initiative to break it off. Where would that leave the garrison commander's face?"

Sister Feng remained silent.

Chu Yan said, “Of course, with the power of your Jia and Wang families, it wouldn’t be difficult for you to get a letter from the Chang’an military governor. The Zhang and Li families, the garrison commanders, are nothing to Second Madam Lian.”

Sister Feng glanced at him.

Chu Yan said, "But that's precisely where your short-sightedness lies."

snort!
Sister Feng snorted inwardly.

"What you consider a small matter may indeed be a small matter in everyday life, but there's a saying that goes, 'Some things don't weigh much until they're weighed, but once they're on the scale, they weigh a ton.'"

"Your Majesty is right, Your Majesty is the scale!" Sister Feng said with a forced smile.

Chu Yan glanced at her and laughed: "You're not convinced? You really have no sense of propriety. There are obvious examples right here, but you still don't take them seriously. You'll only realize this when you're about to die."

Fengjie was truly enraged by the scolding and, disregarding everything else, met his gaze with a smile and asked, "I wonder which matter Your Majesty is referring to? I have no idea what could possibly be so difficult for us four princes and eight dukes!"

"Bullshit, you four kings and eight dukes."

Chu Yan laughed and scolded, "In the emperor's eyes, he's just a slightly higher-ranking servant."

Sister Feng's face turned purple.

Chu Yan said, "The Xue family is a perfect example."

"The Xue family?"

Why has Baochai lived in the Jia family for so many years?

Chu Yan asked her, and Sister Feng frowned, "Is it that murder case?"

"Looks like you're not stupid enough to die yet." Chu Yan said calmly, "Xue Pan is used to being domineering. He got into a fight for Xiang Ling and ended up killing someone. He didn't care, but he didn't know that the Wang family avoided him like the plague and left him to the Jia family to manage. Even when the Xue family came to the capital, the Wang family still didn't care. It was your Jia family that took them in."

Fengjie was even more surprised. She knew nothing about this and only thought that Aunt Xue was staying here because the Rongguo Mansion was so big.

It turns out that the Wang family wouldn't let Auntie go back to her parents' home!

Chu Yan said, "Xue Pan killed someone, and Jia Yucun canceled his household registration, saying that Xue Pan was dead, and that was how the case was closed. But do you know what the consequences are of losing household registration?"

Sister Feng was even more astonished. She knew nothing about this matter, only that it was over!

After a long pause, she could only reply, "Once the household registration is gone, one can no longer serve as an official, nor can one's descendants, unless one uses connections to register the household registration under a collateral branch of the Xue family."

Even if one were to buy an official position, one would still have to investigate three generations of ancestors. Since Xue Pan's household registration was gone, his descendants could not expect to become officials in the future.

Chu Yan laughed and said, "This is what happens when you're weighed down by a thousand pounds. You think that if you go to court, people will be afraid of you, Second Madam Lian? But that's all before you're weighed. Once someone puts the Jia family on the scale, all your past misdeeds will be brought up and weighed one by one!"

Feng Jie was both surprised and frightened. After a long while, she laughed and said, "I have not committed any murder, Your Majesty, please don't scare me."

How could the family have been so devastated, with the girls forced to serve the emperor?

"Not now, but that may not be the case in the future," Chu Yan said.

After thinking for a while, Sister Feng smiled and said, "Who can predict what will happen in the future? We can only live in the present!"

"What a wonderful way to live in the moment!"

Chu Yan laughed, looking at her slender figure, and suddenly asked, "Did you wear that bellyband?"

Startled, Fengjie lowered her head and blushed as she replied, "His Majesty ordered me to embroider this bellyband, and I naturally wore it today."

"Good, that's better."

Chu Yan instructed her, "Let me see how good your embroidery is."

Fengjie was both surprised and embarrassed. She looked around, her face flushed, and asked, "Here?"

Chu Yan nodded, "Right here, hurry, before it gets dark." Feng Jie was extremely embarrassed. Although it was already dusk, it was still broad daylight. Although it was a secluded spot, there was no cover in any direction. The pool was diagonally opposite the Concave Crystal Pavilion, and to the west was a hillside covered with apricot and peach trees. If any maids or servants were paying attention, they would definitely be able to see her and the dog emperor doing this shameful thing under the thatched pavilion!
He pleaded, "If Your Majesty wishes to see my body, why not return to the thatched hut? I have already instructed Ping'er to make the necessary arrangements!"

Chu Yan laughed, "It seems you were prepared. However, I will watch from here. Firstly, the weather is cool, and secondly, the scenery is beautiful. It is the perfect place to visit Feng Nu!"

The words "Feng Nu" made Wang Xifeng blush with embarrassment. She still wanted to decline, but Chu Yan said calmly, "Don't spoil my enjoyment."

Sister Feng's heart skipped a beat!
For her, it was a shameful act of adultery in broad daylight, enough to make anyone die of shame.

But for the emperor, it was nothing more than a moment of leisurely enjoyment.

No wonder he didn't care about any other place, but chose to meet her in this quiet cottage. It turns out he was determined to see her embarrassed here!
Overwhelmed with shame and indignation, she had considered the consequences of disobeying the imperial decree: either being imprisoned or expelled from the Jia family. If the wicked emperor were to become ruthless, he might even marry her off to a servant, and the humiliation she would suffer would be exactly what she was experiencing now…

That's it.

Sister Feng glanced at him with a resentful look, then reached out and began to unbutton the buttons on her clothes.

Filled with resentment, she moved swiftly, quickly unfastening her maroon satin jacket. She looked up at him, exchanged a glance with this damned emperor, and seeing him staring at her with great interest, she cursed him again inwardly.

She smiled shyly and said, "His Majesty likes my withered and frail body, and I dare not disobey the imperial decree."

Chu Yan laughed and said, "You just need to remove your armor."

"Remove armor?"

Sister Feng was taken aback, and after a long while, she continued to unbutton her inner garment, still hanging the clothes on the railing of the thatched pavilion.

Her face turned even redder.

The emperor was still watching, so she could only continue to take off her skirt and underpants.

"continue."

Seeing that she had stopped, Chu Yan gave another instruction.

Wang Xifeng wished she could pounce on him and bite or scratch him to death!
Judging by the size of the dog emperor's body, one could probably block her fancy but ineffective martial arts with just a finger.

She could only close her eyes, hastily take off the last of her clothes, and throw them onto the railing.

She was still ashamed, so she covered her lower abdomen with her hands, wearing only a bodice to cover herself.

Chu Yan looked at the slender beauty in front of him who was only wearing a bodice. After a long while, he nodded and said, "A beauty is in front of me, but it's a pity there's no tea."

The words "Feng Nu is guilty" were embroidered on her bodice, with the words "Feng Nu" placed at the very top, making the bodice appear fuller and rounder.

It has an excellent shape.

Chu Yan's concubine, Feng Nu, was slender and delicate, possessing a more mature and voluptuous beauty than Daiyu and Lingguan. In particular, her bust was not large enough to be described as alluring.

Her legs were bare, straight and fair.

He covered his abdomen with his hand.

He looked like he was afraid of the sun.

Wang Xifeng actually understood his absurd words:

If there is tea, one can enjoy the tea while appreciating her body.

She felt both ashamed and angry, but being a woman, Fengjie was naturally pleased to hear a man praise her beauty.

He opened his eyes and asked, feigning concern, "Does Your Majesty wish me to have Ping'er bring tea?"

Chu Yan laughed, "If you don't mind, go ahead and call them, but you can't wear clothes."

Sister Feng blushed and fell silent.

She was still covering her lower body with her hands, but her eyes caught the dog emperor laughing at her, which made her even more ashamed and angry. She looked like this…

Because he let go.

But the undergarment couldn't cover her lower body; once she let go, it was chilly and exposed right under his nose.

Fengjie tried to cover herself up again, but it was no use. She turned to face him again, only to hear the dog emperor laugh and say, "Turn your back so I can see your back and buttocks."

"!!!"

Sister Feng turned around and glared at him with her phoenix eyes full of anger.

Chu Yan just smiled as he looked at her.

Left with no other choice, Sister Feng could only turn her back to him.

Chu Yan instructed, "Turn around."

Sister Feng turned around with her eyes closed.

Then I heard him say, "Turn around."

Sister Feng suddenly opened her eyes, gritted her teeth and cursed, "Since His Majesty has humiliated me like this, I don't want to live anymore. I'd rather jump into the water and drown!"

As she spoke, she ran towards the pool next to her. Chu Yan got up, gently pulled her back, put his arm around Feng Jie's waist, and sat down again, laughing, "Why bother, Feng Jie? It's just the two of us here. After tonight, you'll still be Second Mistress Lian. Let me have my fun."

Feng Jie, in his arms, calmed down a bit after he stopped her. Seeing that the dog emperor was willing to speak peacefully, she was secretly pleased and complained to him, "Your Majesty, if you want a woman's body, just take it. Why humiliate me like this? I'm thin-skinned and can't bear Your Majesty's shameful methods!"

Chu Yan laughed and said, "If you lie again, I won't care whether you jump or not next time."

Sister Feng asked, "Which part of my statement was a lie?"

Chu Yan reached out and pinched her cheek. "You think you're so thin-skinned?"

Fengjie remained silent, only looking at him with a wronged expression from within his arms.

Chu Yan nodded: "Perhaps in bed. By the way, have you and Jia Lian practiced any moves?"

A young girl has an advantage that she can't have, as she can talk about bedroom matters with a woman in bed.

But Sister Feng remained silent.

Chu Yan could only sigh and begin to spar, saying, "Very well, I'll have a spar with you and see how good your martial arts are."

Sister Feng was so angry she laughed!
Seeing that he was about to attack her, she breathed a sigh of relief, leaned on the emperor's shoulder, and said angrily, "What martial arts skills do I have? How dare you humiliate me like this..."

"Really not? I don't believe it."

Chu Yan also removed his armor, threw his dragon robe onto her clothes, and quickly began to test Feng Jie's true intentions.

"Just as I expected!"

The aloof and ethereal woman was secretly amazed. She had only suspected that Ping'er and Xiao Hong had appeared together and lingered for a long time, which meant that Wang Xifeng was also nearby.

She was strolling around the Concave Crystal Pavilion when she saw the emperor walk across the Qinfang Bridge, which made her pay even more attention to the other side.

After waiting for a while, she saw the emperor and a woman appear, and she guessed that the woman was Wang Xifeng!
Now, even from a distance, she can tell what the two are doing.

After a short while, she saw the emperor again leading Wang Xifeng to the edge of the pool. It seemed that the sky was darkening and night was approaching, and the emperor was openly embracing her while facing the pool.

She should have looked away, but she seemed lost in thought, her usually cool eyes now fixed on the opposite side of the pool.

Judging from the two men's reckless behavior, one could hear whispers and curses coming from them.

"Dog Emperor?"

She vaguely heard Wang Xifeng cursing like that, but the next moment, the emperor became even more ferocious towards her.

Ripples spread across the water's surface, but unfortunately, they were too far away to reach the Crystal Pavilion.

"Is Master Miaoyu still admiring the moon?" The old woman on duty at the Concave Crystal Pavilion came out and asked with a smile.

Miaoyu had just come to her senses when the old woman looked at her and asked curiously, "Master Miaoyu, do you have a fever? Your face is so red."

For the first time, Miaoyu lost her composure and hurriedly tried to cover it up, saying, "It's just because the sun has been shining all day and the ground is still hot. It's nothing to worry about." She then added, "I'm going back now."

After saying this, she was about to leave, but then worried that the old woman would see the person on the other side of the pond and know that she had been watching for a long time, so she stopped her and asked, "Aunt Song, do you have a lantern? Please lend me one to light my way back, and I will bring it back tomorrow."

She would occasionally come to this area for a walk and often interacted with the old woman from the Crystal Pavilion.

After receiving the lantern, Miaoyu dared not linger any longer and hurriedly returned to Longcui Nunnery.
